Sponsor a Year of Imagination

Reading has been recognized as a critical component of a child’s future success, yet research shows that parents often lack the resources needed to develop healthy reading habits with their children at home.

Did you know that children who do not read proficiently by 3rd grade are 4 times more likely to drop out of school? These numbers are higher in low-income communities. 

Help us change our preschooler’s story by sponsoring a year of “Storytime!“

Why Your Support Matters

CDA Preschool’s literacy program, “Storytime!” partners with parents, as a child’s first teacher, to develop and nurture their child’s love for reading. Each month, their child will receive a new book, resources on how to read as a family, and tips to strengthen reading habits and build a home library. By increasing home literacy parents support their child’s healthy development. When we instill a lifelong love of reading at an early age we build a lasting foundation for their future success.

Your Reimbursement May Be Less For The Following:
Family is authorized with a variable schedule

Variable schedules are reimbursed for the actual care hours provided that are within the hours authorized. The reimbursement will not exceed the amount billed by the provider or the full-time (FT) or part-time (PT) RMRC listed on the certificate for child care services. CDA will not reimburse for child absences, provider holiday or closure days on a variable schedule. If the full billed/invoiced amount is not paid, the parent is responsible for the difference directly to the provider.

Reimbursement of provider non-operation days/holidays

The number of reimbursable provider holidays and/or non-operation days is limited to a maximum of 10 days per fiscal year. Once these allowable limits are exceeded, reimbursement will be prorated for future closure days.

Reimbursement of registration fees, material fees, insurance fees

Fees for registration, material and/or insurance may be reimbursed if the current reimbursement amount does not exceed the Regional Market Rate Ceiling (RMRC). Reimbursement of these fees is limited to one (1) per child, per fiscal year and will be made in a single payment when requested on the child’s attendance record.

Note: For providers with programs that have multiple fees in one year or where it has been determined that the reimbursement amount exceeds the RMRC, the excess fees will be the responsibility of the parent.

License-exempt providers:

When childcare is authorized for a total of 30 or more hours per week the Full Time Weekly RMRC will be used. When childcare is authorized for a total of less than 30 hours per week the Part Time Hourly RMRC will be used.
